The AmBank print should be there to prove to them.

am quite sure they can recognise their own FD cert, the colour, the imprints.

My first experience with AmBank, I've already given up totally and will never bank with them in future. I took Uber all the way to Menara Ambank at KLCC after calling them to confirm the 4.4%. The best part is, they were so good at "recognizing" their staff voice within seconds and told me it was not their staff (all my conversation was recorded, so I proved to them)
I spoke to both Asst Branch Manager (Irene) and Branch Manager (he said he's Lay, refused to reveal full name).  Both were adamant that I was creating story (as I told them my friend got 4.4%).

Went to Alliance Bank, got 4.38%. Not without issues though, waited for 30 min, reached my turn, then told me PIC not around (don't know go where MIA). After that keep calling PIC, waiting some time he came back. Then cannot find the relevant forms, keep finding here and there. I really wonder what's wrong with banks employees nowadays, if they don't want business don't do promotion

Pls la, creating story for that meagre 0.02% meh, I would be pissed mad if I were you too.





QUOTE(Deal Hunter @ Mar 23 2018, 12:21 AM)
I passed 4 Ambank branches recently and all of them were consistent in confirming that the 4.4% is available not for fresh funds or non-fresh funds under another rate but only for renewals. I did not press how much extra top-up can be allowed for the higher rate as I did not have any Ambank FD maturing. biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif

That was what the BM told me too, must bundle with other investment then only 4.4% or either FD renewal, then I said fresh fund dont want ah? I said you try ask first , then he whatsapp and say 4.4% ok shakehead.gif

Yesterday took out HL FD. Went to Bank Islam for 2 years effective rate 4.65% FD.

Towards the end, the manager came down to say hello and pass a gift to me. Looks like they have tons of 2019 diary need to give away.  tongue.gif Got one previously.

Also gave Ang Pow packages.

I opened mine in Sri Petaling.
The Bank Islam staff also asked me so many personal and sensitive questions just like what they asked you, she even asked me what car am I driving? and where do I live..?... rclxub.gif
The way she asked was very scarry..  sweat.gif

I think Bank Islam staffs are trained to ask new customers' sensitive questions

Anyway, once they are getting to know you, they will say hi and no more asking sensitive questions..

did u get any free gifts for your placement ? Planning to go there too, but NOT prepared with them bombarding me with personal questions. By the way, was the cert issued on the spot with a cheque placement?

After I asked for free gift, they only gave me some small gifts that were not useful...  sad.gif

FD Cert will issue after check is cleared.
The most important thing is, you insist FD effective on the same date when you submit your check; otherwise FD will effective after your check is cleared.

You'd better prepare if they ask you your source of money..
But if you are leng chai, then maybe they will not ask you any questions biggrin.gif

I will place more FD with Bank Islam before 31 June

Thanks @boomchacha

wonder if anyone sound them before for asking too many questions ..... or worse, leave the bank for all the intrusive questions...lol

Today I took the Bank Islam's FD Promo (Go 7). Effective rate 4.65%pa, Min 50k for 2 years. You have 2 options, 1) profit will be credited into saving account every 3 months or 2) let the profit rollover every 3 months. TQ
*
2) sounds good, I am assuming rollover means we'll get interest on the interest as well, right ?

Do you towkays ever bother to read the latest Terms and Conditions for the 2019 Bank Islam GO 7 %. You cannot read it directly since it is pdf file download. Please do not make the mistake of downloading the mid 2018 TnC.

Dear Shylocks, I have read through the 2019 version and frankly taking things in a very literal legalistic manner,  there is not the slightest indication that the profit after each 3 month cycle can/will be added to the principal.

Which is why we are Shylocks while you are Sherlock notworthy.gif
